Description

Miscellaneous matters are what keep us fascinated by what’s going on around us while we indulge our own favourite interests. If one of those interests happens to be horseracing, then The Racing Post Horseracing Miscellany, full of marvellously magnificent moments - many magically memorable - from racing’s several centuries of excellent equine existence, and an amazing, amusing, absorbing collection of little-known jockey japes, trainer and turf trivia, owner observations, punter punditry and bookie banter, is a book you will love. Every race meeting produces winners and also-rans, but every off-beat, intriguing story chronicled in this cornucopia of course and distance action will be an odds-on favourite with racegoers young and old. As the title suggests, you'll find literally thousands of little-known, unexpected yarns, tales and stories from the off to the finish line; the starting stalls to the winning post, the first to the last page. And you can bet it’s an odds-on shot you'll know you have really backed a winner.

Author Biography:

Graham Sharpe, an award-winning journalist, has written widely on the lighter, quirkier sides of horseracing and racehorses, jockeys and trainers, owners, racegoers, punters and bookmakers, with first-hand knowledge, experience and insight, gained from almost 50 years working in the industry. His strength is compiling and reporting the unusual, unexpected, unlikely and otherwise uncatalogued elements of this worldwide sport.
